6. For many – it’s The Honeymoon Period
• We all experience setting a big goal – that really pumps us up,
we start strong, and then fade out….
• Why do our best intentions sometimes fail?
• How can we be sure not to fail this time?
7. Reason why I know I have failed in the past
• I didn’t have a strong “why”
• Too Many, Too Tough, Too Soon
• Too Rigid
• Too Vague
• No Measurement
• No Accountability
• The Opposite of what we call S.M.A.R.T. goals

9. Step One - Discovering Your Why
• The WHY is more important than the HOW.
• Does your why make you cry?
10. Step One - Discovering Your Why
• Ryan Urbach
• Same goal year after year
• Who is going to teach Carter to hunt?
12. Step Two - Year in Review
• The process here is Plan, Do, Review
• Plan- you make the plan
• Do – execute your plan
• Review- evaluate your outcome
• Improve- identify ways to make your plan better
• By reviewing your past accomplishments, able to identify areas to
improve!
13. Step Three - Gratitude
• Create an abundance mindset and not a ‘lack of’ mindset.
• Acknowledge and appreciate the abundance you already have.
14. Step Four - Your Balance Sheet
• Imbalance = Disaster
• Wheel of Life Chart
• Accounts
15. Ideas to Keep in Mind
You don’t want to end up like this…..
17. Step Five - The Grand Design
• 1st - Have fun, no limits and dream big! No, dream bigger!
• Read “The Magic of Thinking Big”
• Now, narrow your dreams down to your top 10.
• Finally, narrow them down even further to the top 3.
The Essential Few….
18. Ideas to Keep in Mind
Your focus should be on 3 goals. Not 100 goals, or even 10
goals. The Vital Few!
“If you have more than three strategic priorities, you don’t have
any.”
-Jim Collins
19. Step Five - The Grand Design
• Now make sure those 3 Goals are SMART.
S
M
A
R
T
= Specific
= Measurable
= Attainable
= Relevant
= Time Sensitive
20. Step Five - The Grand Design
• Create a goal that is SPECIFIC.
• Not “I want to be Debt Free”
• Specify exactly what you will do: I will shred my credit cards and
pay off $27,000 in credit card debt by 3/31/15.
21. Step Five - The Grand Design
• Create a goal that is MEASURABLE.
• Milestones and deadlines...
• In your goal, include what will be measured: I will lose 25
pounds by…..and I will do this by losing 2 lbs. a week for 12.5
weeks.
22. Step Five - The Grand Design
• Create a goal that is ATTAINABLE.
• You can’t lose 25 lbs. this week….
• We over estimate what we can do in the short term
• We under estimate what we can do in the long term
23. Step Five - The Grand Design
• Create a goal that is RELEVANT.
• Does your goal match your core values, your mission and vision
for your life? Is it really important to you?
• Be sure to choose something that will improve your life and help
you become the best you possible.
24. Step Five - The Grand Design
• Create a goal that is TIME SENSITIVE.
• It’s got to have deadline!
“ A dream is just a dream. A goal is a dream with a plan and a
deadline.”
– Harvey MacKay
25. Step Six - The Magic Factor
• Keep – Start - Stop
• Identify existing healthy habits, disciplines or behaviors I need to
expand.
• Identify poor habits or behaviors I need to stop
• Create 3 modifications and how I will implement these into my daily
routine
26. Step Six - The Magic Factor
• The magic comes from becoming the person you need to be in
order to attract the people or results you wish to meet or
achieve.
• It’s less about “What do I need to do” and more about…
• Who do I need to become?
• What new habits, routines and behaviors do I need to start?
28. Step Eight - Take Action
• What you will do in the next 24 hours?
• What you will do in the next 30 days?
• Why is this important to start now? “Mo”
Started at 14, I must have quit 10 times over those years. I knew it could kill me, I’d seen all the gross pictures…so why did I fail at it over and over and over?
A big reason people fail at reaching their goals…
All the steps I am going to talk to you about are in this journal. Don’t skip a single step.
When it comes to reaching a goal – why is more important than how.
It’s too hard to reach a goal that is not powered by a strong why.
Ryan Urbach – best example
Ryan – lose weight – always starts strong – this year is different.
G’s goals from 2005 – his why’s were about Maureen, having a family, helping his Mom and Dad, and it’s in writing!
Skip this today….
Easy to be grateful for me when I remember where I’ve been- I was one lived in my little sisters basement – so I really love my house
